</TABLE> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The settlement proposal is broadly aligned with the existing US$6.5&nbsp;billion provision based on the current assessment of
the uncertainties associated with the execution of the Obligations to Perform and current estimates of the extent to which Samarco could directly fund settlement obligations. The provision remains subject to review and finalisation of the terms and
conditions of a final and binding settlement agreement. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under the terms of Samarco&#146;s Judicial Reorganisation Plan, Samarco&#146;s funding of
remediation obligations will be capped at US$1&nbsp;billion for the period CY2024 to CY2030. To the extent that Samarco has a positive cash balance each year after meeting its various obligations including operating capital requirements, debt
service and remediation obligations in line with the cap, BHP Brasil and Vale are able to direct 50% of Samarco&#146;s year end excess cash balance to provide further funding for remediation and compensation obligations. BHP Brasil and Vale will be
required to provide funding to remediation obligations during this period to the extent that the funding amount required exceeds the US$1&nbsp;billion cap and any excess Samarco cash available. </P>
